The property was fairly clean, featured modern design, I greatly enjoyed it. In general the service was very good. Didn't need to pay for concierge service, wake up calls, and local calls, good bonus too. The hotel's location was magnificent and absolutely perfect, not far from taxis, nearby bus stops for trips to see The Rotyal Yacht Britannia and centre and railway station.
